72 Hours, and Counting...

No. I haven't fallen off the face of the earth. It's just that we move to SINGAPORE on Monday. If you saw our home, you would not guess that it needs to be empty by Monday morning. Thankfully, our family and friends have turned out in force this week to help us. We truly could not do it without them. Thanks to them, we may even get to sleep a bit Saturday and Sunday nights - the last times I moved I pulled a few 48 hour days.

Things are happening. In the past two weeks we have acquired...

new water heater

new roof

new driveway (which can't be driven on until after we leave)

new flooring on first floor

new furnace

central air

After 5 years of renters, there are so many little things that need doing. Most of the renters were really good renters, but a 19 year old house is ready for upkeep. Now that the house looks so great, is anyone looking to rent a 3 bedroom, 3 bath house in White Bear Township? Call Metro Home Maintenance and ask about renting in White Bear Township.

It has been such a mad rush (and still is) that we will have some reckoning to pay later in terms of catching us up mentally with where we will be physically. Thank you for reading. I hope you'll continue to visit this blog after it is being authored in Singapore.

About Me

After a year back in White Bear Lake, Minnesota teaching fifth grade in the public schools, I've returned to S.E. Asia to try my hand at being a tech coordinator for an international school in Singapore. (Of course, the views expressed here are my own and in no way represent the views of my employer.)
